Doris Day made her debut as
a young widow with two sons.
They took her out to dinner for
her birthday. It turned out to be
a roadside inn, which was a
dump. The kids didn't have
enough money to pay the bill.
The owner was a loud-mouth
stinker, who turned out to be
very understanding in the end. It
was a wasted 30 minutes and
Doris Day will, in my opinion,
not return next season with
those kids.

Violence is still with us on
the screen, as it should be. It was
the ABC debut of The Mod
Squad, which I partially viewed.
Ninety minutes was too much.
They had a murder And a
kidnapping and a gun-fight.
Violence helps keep one awake.

Bob Hope came on strong
with his first special of the
season. Highlights of his
monologue were: "I Dream of
Jeannie is back with her bottle.
So is Dean. Laugh-In is back for
those of you who missed the
conventions. I've been busy this
month entertaining the troopi at
the Democratic Convention."
When referring to the
Democratic Convention, he said
"or how to blow the White
House without even trying."
* * *
Here are some of the
highlights of the last Rowan and
Martin Laugh-In: "One way to
lower the divorce rate is to issue
a 30-day beginner's license."
"General DeGaulle is good for
France; General Franco is good
for Spain; so which General is
good for the United States?"
The answer was "General
Motors."
On the bottom of the screen'
we saw "Little Orphan Annie,
Call the Eye Bank."
One of the comedians said
"My brother plays piano by
ear." "That's nothing," the
other said, "my uncle fiddles
with his navel."
Should be a good year for
TV.
Cold remedies do little except
relieve the symptoms and
miseries associated with colds.
Don't prolong their use. Consult
your doctor about any condition
that does not clear up in a few
days. A "common cold" may
develop into something more
serious requiring special drugs
which only a doctor can
prescribe.
with blisters on her feet. She
tells us now the shoes were too
small when we bought them.
But you wouldn't be
interested in that. I'll bet you've
got kids at your house whose
feet grow a half an inch in three
hours.
Maybe you'd like to know
about the pant problem we have
at the present time. Our eldest
son is at that awkward stage —
he's too young to be treated like
a man and he's too old to belt
on the bind end without just
cause.
But he needs trousers. It is
indecent to send him to school
without them. Only trouble is,
the child hasn't a pair of pants in
the house which are all in one
piece.
About six pair of perfectly
good pants have gone down
struggling since the beginning of
school.
Even though our son very
carefully wriggles into his pants
each day, saves strain on the
seams by having his sister tie his
shoes for him and sits down in a
standing position on the school
bus, the stitches at the crotch
always pull out.
The trouble has to be rotten
thread or poor workmanship. It
just can't be that the pants are
too darn tight because that's the
style.
"Everybody wears them that
way, mom."
But I won't bother you with
that sordid tale. Most young
men look like strangled zombies
these days. No use to remind
you of it.
Perhaps you'd like to hear
about the day my two-year-old
went shopping in his T-shirt (and
nothing else). That was the day
we left home in a hurry for two
weeks of camping while the
neighbours tried to forget.
Or what if I'd report back on
that big garden we. planted this
past spring — the one that grew
so wild we had to pull some
plants to keep them from
choking the neighbour's orchard.
Right now, my husband could
be mistaken for Dr. Livingstone
who chopped ,his, way through
the African jungles — only it's
just corn stalks my spouse is
slashing and felling.
What's the use. You wouldn't
want to read about common
place happenings like those. And
time's up. I hear my little
bulldozer waking up from his
nap.
No time now to write a
column.
